+ will all give the same result. You can add some remarks to the end of
+ the command and they will be added to the spot.

+ DX FR0G 144600 this is a test

+
+
+ You can credit someone else by saying:-
+
+
+
+ DX by G1TLH FR0G 144.600 he isn't on the cluster
+
+
+
+
+ The <freq> is compared against the available bands set up in the
+ cluster. See SHOW/BANDS for more information.

+ 9.36. export (9)
+
+ export <msgno> <filename> Export a message to a file
+
+ Export a message to a file. This command can only be executed on a
+ local console with a fully privileged user. The file produced will be
+ in a form ready to be imported back into the cluster by placing it in
+ the import directory (/spider/msg/import).
+
+ This command cannot overwrite an existing file. This is to provide
+ some measure of security. Any files written will owned by the same
+ user as the main cluster, otherwise you can put the new files anywhere
+ the cluster can access. For example:-
+
+ EXPORT 2345 /tmp/a
+
+
+ 9.37. export_users (9)
+
+ export_users [<filename>] Export the users database to ascii
+
+
+ Export the users database to a file in ascii format. If no filename is
+ given then it will export the file to /spider/data/user_asc.
+
+ If the file already exists it will be renamed to <filename>.o. In fact
+ up to 5 generations of the file can be kept each one with an extra 'o'
+ on the suffix.
+
+ BE WARNED: this will write to any file you have write access to. No
+ check is made on the filename (if any) that you specify.

+
+ 9.38. filtering (0)
+
+ filtering Filtering things in DXSpider
+
+
+ There are a number of things you can filter in the DXSpider system.
+ They all use the same general mechanism.
+
+ In general terms you can create a 'reject' or an 'accept' filter which
+ can have up to 10 lines in it. You do this using, for example:-
+
+ accept/spots ..... reject/spots .....
+
+ where ..... are the specific commands for that type of filter. There
+ are filters for spots, wwv, announce, wcy and (for sysops) connects.
+ See each different accept or reject command reference for more
+ details.
+
+ There is also a command to clear out one or more lines in a filter and
+ one to show you what you have set. They are:-
+
+ clear/spots 1 clear/spots all
+
+ and
+
+ show/filter
+
+ There is clear/xxxx command for each type of filter.
+
+ For now we are going to use spots for the examples, but you can apply
+ the principles to all types of filter.
+
+ There are two main types of filter 'accept' or 'reject'; which you use
+ depends entirely on how you look at the world and what is least
+ writing to achieve what you want. Each filter has 10 lines (of any
+ length) which are tried in order. If a line matches then the action
+ you have specified is taken (ie reject means ignore it and accept
+ means gimme it).
+
+ The important thing to remember is that if you specify a 'reject'
+ filter (all the lines in it say 'reject/spots' (for instance) then if
+ a spot comes in that doesn't match any of the lines then you will get
+ it BUT if you specify an 'accept' filter then any spots that don't
+ match are dumped. For example if I have a one line accept filter:-
+
+ accept/spots on vhf and (by_zone 14,15,16 or call_zone 14,15,16)
